Mic Check - Rage Against The Machine

Oh, wait a minute now

Huh-huh

Come on

Oh, wait a minute now

Check

To the Young R to the E, the B to the E, the L

Never give up, just live up

Fed upon America, I’ll be spittin' it up

Rippin' it up for an even amount in each cup

To my brothers' burning bare feet on black top

Whose curled 'neath the shadows from the gaze of the cops

Whose huntin' for 9 to 5's through factory locks

Is now hunted on this modern day auction block

Mic check, ha ha ha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker

Mic check, ha ha ha ha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker, what?

Mic check, ha ha ha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker

Mic check, ha ha ha ha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker, what?

Check, check, check, check, the check

Oh, packin'

Flexin' and mashin' with complex text

Fast and in a fashion that snap back necks

Quicker than a fed cash the company checks

I be the «Fire» only Marley could catch

Yes, I be the flame in the cellar, beware

Nameless cold millions gaspin' for air

The naked and wageless, scream within cages

What, they make you pull your shit

Just to get your share, what?

Mic check, ha ha ha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker

Mic check, ha ha ha ha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker, what?

Mic check, ha ha ha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker

Mic check, ha ha ha ha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker, what?

We’ll walk 'em down with the warrior’s sound

With this mic device, I spit nonfiction (Fiction)

«Who got the power?», this be my question (Question)

The mass or the few in this torn nation?

(Nation)

The priest, the book, or the congregation?

('Gation)

The politricks who rob and hold down your zone?

(Zone)

Or those who give the thieves the key to their homes?

(Homes)

The pig who’s free to murder one Shucklak

Or survivors who make a move and murder one back?
